**Question:**  
Wix API returns empty custom fields in orders , even though it has valid value.

**Product:**  
Wix Headless API  
@wix/ecom

**What are you trying to achieve:**  
I am trying to generate a report from my customer of his order, I have a pick up date, which is custom field.  
I added this field in checkout form, and I can see it in orders in wix dashboard.  
However when I fetch via wix-api, the value is missing and I get an empty array.

**What have you already tried:**  
Tried reading documentation and searched in forums, but could not find a solution.

**Additional information:**  
This is a code snippet.

import { orders } from “@wix/ecom”;  
import { ApiKeyStrategy, createClient } from “@wix/sdk”;  
import moment from “moment-timezone”;  
import type { NextApiRequest, NextApiResponse } from ‘next’;

const myWixClient = createClient({  
auth: ApiKeyStrategy({  
apiKey: process.env.WIX\_API\_KEY || ‘’,  
siteId: process.env.SITE\_ID || ‘’,  
accountId: process.env.ACCOUNT\_ID || ‘’,  
}),  
modules: {  
orders,  
},  
});

const ordersData = await myWixClient.orders.searchOrders({  
search: {  
filter: {  
$and: [  
{ createdDate: { $gte: formattedStartDate } },  
{ createdDate: { $lte: formattedEndDate } }  
]  
}  
},  
});
